Well, Y'all was all kinds of interestin' over at Yiffy today. I was rollin' in laughter so much from what I saw that I had to break my year of silence to tell you all myself!
"Ooh, someone has my art in their chat!"
Now, I'm not about to start a fight with you folks over this, I'm just letting off steam. If I were to raise a stink on any o' y'all, I'd have to drop my stone for I could not throw it.
I admit myself to borrowing art from around the net for my YI profiles.
I never mean anything of it. I like the art and it fits my personal, visual image of a character I'd had envisioned. I myself am unable to draw because of weak muscles in my hands. I can type whole stories, but goddamn the minute I pick up a pencil, or brush and I try to make something my hands are burning red by the time I'm done.
All this from someone who wants to make it in the movies, too.
and I know I could, should probably just ask for commissions, then there's the other thing. I'm not very adept with the computer, I've never bought a thing online before, I don't even know how it works. I personally feel safer when money is passing hands in person, because then I can tell the person with my face and words what a good job they did.
It's how I've always been. I'm a real emotional type.
At work, I have to clean around the tables and I still have trouble going near tables when people are still eating because then it makes me scared that I'm bothering them and I'll just look like some idiot.
So if I... knowing my ineptitude involving online business transactions, I were to try to ask something of someone, I'd be afraid of bothering them, making myself seem a fool in their eyes.
the point I'm trying to make... is everyone has reasons. Most people are better off taking the easy route. I don't like it myself. I particularly loathe doing anything the easy way. Easy's not fun, it's boring. You have to work to earn your fun.
On that same thought, it's taking the easy way when you go for words such as thief.
But I won't begrudge anyone for taking that route because I have fallen by that wayside myself.
What I am trying to say is... talk it out. If you are unhappy with what someone, especially myself, has done, tell me or them, in your most sincere way, as sincere as text on a computer will allow complex beings as ourselves can express our voice.
People aren't as doomed as Friedrich Nietzsche or someone else would lead us to believe. We all deserve a chance, a doubt.
Thank you and...
I still love you all, FA. <3
